Faith, Politics & The Future of America

U.S. Rep. James E. Clyburn (D-SC) joins Beyond The Hype to talk about faith, politics, and his new book, The First Eight: Personal History of the Pioneering Black Congressman Who Shaped A Nation. Fresh from co-hosting the Faith & Politics Institute’s 36th Congressional Pilgrimage with U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), Rep. Clyburn explains what motivated his decision to seek his 18th term in Congress, and how the perils faced by our nation today mirrors the period of the eight Black Congressman from South Carolina who preceded him.
